JOURNAL 2026
Summer
Wimbledon is looming, house/garden renovations in full flow and all around the landscape of England is so vibrant and floral. It’s a joy to be by the sea too and coastal walks inspire embroidery ideas. I have been making some silk bracelets with Liberty ties and will be writing all about them soon, along with a needlepoint project that is all about making something old into something new, but with a few twists and turns along the way. I also have some dressmaking projects on the cutting table too…so much to do and never enough time. Stay tuned.

This is a really special one to me and as I begin to write this post I find myself just so thrilled with the outcome that it brings happy tears to my eyes. Let’s just say that it’s a story that can now be in my ‘everyday’. I feel like I took something old and made it new, but kept the ‘old’ and embraced the ‘new’ and the result is something both useful and so pretty and worth all the hours spent on it.
